Written Reply to Parliamentary Question 

Mr Abdul Muhaimin Abdul Malik asked the Acting Minister for Transport 

a.     what impact do car-lite designations have on vehicle ownership and public transport usage in the 16 gazetted areas since 2019; and

b.      what lessons have been learnt from implementing car-lite measures in HDB estates like Bayshore and Ulu Pandan.

Reply by Acting Minister for Transport Jeffrey Siow: 

1.     The 16 gazetted car-lite areas, including Bayshore and Ulu Pandan estates, are still in development. For instance, Bayshore was part of the earliest areas designated in 2019, and its first sites are only expected to be completed around 2030. We will assess the impact of car-lite designations on these areas after they have largely been occupied.
